Things gone 360 degrees?

[Crowebar]

I think things going 360 degrees would mean a GnR reunion 

I'm not going to speculate on who/what/why/how things got to where they did because it's Axl Rose and I couldn't care less what drives him to do the things he does as long as he's doing it. Whatever it is.

He wants to step out of the limelight for over a decade? Have at it. I can understand all too well how someone might want just to get away from everything for a while.
He wants to finally drop CD? FUCKIN' SWEET!
He doesn't wanna tour behind it right away? I don't care, I already saw him kick ass in '06 and who is anyone to demand anything of another person?
He wants to tour Asia and Canada now before America? So fucking what? When was the last time GnR toured the US compared to the last time they toured some of those countries?

Bottom line is this: I didn't give a flying fuck about these people back when they had nothing but shit to talk about my favorite musician.. and I'm still not going to give a flying fuck about them when they decide to jump on the bandwagon.

well said. don't think I could've said it any better.
i'm just glad that things are the way they are.
i've waited an extremely long time (as have many others) to get to where we are and now i just want to enjoy the fuck out of it while it lasts.

I think all Slash fans are dead 

It's not that they're dead, it's that they've become Fergie fans and Chinese Democracy is a little too dark for them.

Or they've just realised that GN'R is not and never was only about Slash.

Indeed.

Slash is, in fact, no longer in Axl's ass. That's luxury real estate right about now. The poor media are going to have to accept that Axl won.

Except for the 360? in the title (180? fits better), this is one of the best threads in a long, long time... Everything exposed here represents reality. Specially after this new tour, people got over the past.
